Design and Implementation of an SPO2 Based Sensor for Heart Monitoring Using an Android Application

Abstract

Abstract The heart is one of the most vital organs in the human body therefore; its wellbeing and health are monitored continuously to determine the medical conditions of patients. The current paper presents a heart rate measuring device, which can also be used to measure oxygen saturation levels, and body temperature. All measured results have been analyzed by an Arduino platform to decide the patient’s health status. The obtained measurements were also monitored using an in-house mobile application with an integrated alarm system acquainted by both the therapist and patient. The design of this device is dependent on many types of platforms such as Arduino, Android and cloud server. This device can help the patients to check their health status and provide suggested course of action.
